Breaking Boundaries: Experimental Poetry of the Unsilent Generation

Online synchronous. Limited seats. A crash course with Hoa Nguyen via the Poetry Society of America featuring the writings of Mei-mei Berssenbrugge, Wanda Coleman, Alice Notley, Cecilia Vicuña, and Anne Waldman.

A five-week excursion into the innovative work of five women poets born on the cusp of societal shifts (1945-1948), writers who defied expectations, experimented with form, and challenged conventions. Here you'll be encouraged to write both during and outside of our sessions, responding to prompts drawn from our readings, to generate poems as we think and conspire alongside these experimental poets toward furthering poetry and creative expression.
